A Mandala of Magic

Goddess devotion is a roadmap to cultivating a life of magic, wonder, and wisdom. Forging a conscious relationship with the Goddess picks up a gossamer thread of our lost lineage that enriches, instructs, and helps us navigate the world, weaving it through the joys and challenges of our modern life. 

Through Her stories, the Goddess teaches us about Beauty, Healing, Sovereignty, Compassion, Justice, and Love. She can guide us to empower ourselves, liberate our communities, and transform the patriarchal paradigms of oppression and violence that plague our world.

How might the Goddesses of your path manifest themselves in your life? I invite you to see how my devotional practices unfold over the course of the year through myth, archetype, poetry, ritual, and daily practice. 

Each of the links below describes the goddess as I see her, including lore, history, magic and a snippet of my own practices. Associations I list on each page include traditional and those from my own personal gnosis. “Moons” include full moons and dark moons that fall within each goddess’s window of time, and offer insight on what kinds of magic might be worked with them.
